Forbes, turning to Ellen, "I don' know but you might about as well go down to the post-office; but, if I was you, I'd just get Dr. Marshchalk instead. He's a smarter man than Dr. Gibson any day in the year; and he ain't quite so awful high neither, and that's something. I'd get Dr.
"Ellen," she whispered, "don't you want to go downstairs and see when the folks are coming up to help us? And tell the doctor he must be spry, for we ain't agoing to get through in a hurry," she added, laughing. "Which is the doctor, Maam?" "The doctor! Doctor Marshchalk! don't you know?" "Is he a doctor?" said Alice. "No, not exactly, I suppose, but he's just as good as the real.
"But see, Ellen!" cried Jenny again, "if you will go if you don't find Dr. Gibson, just get Dr. Marshchalk he's every bit as good, and some folks think he's better; he'll do just as well. Good-bye!"

He has seen fit to let little Billy alone ever since." "Well, I guess I'll let the Dennisons come," said Miss Fortune; "that makes twelve and you and your mother are fourteen.

If you'll leave your name I'll give it to him." "I cannot wait," said Ellen, "I am in a dreadful hurry. Will you be so good as to tell me where Dr. Marshchalk lives?" "Well if so be you're in such a takin' you can't wait you know where Mis' Forbes lives?" "At the inn? the Star! yes."
"Walk in, Miss Mary walk in, Miss Jenny Mr. Marshchalk has been here this great while." Miss Mary Hitchcock was in nothing remarkable.
